Currently you have the ability to ignore someone's posts and ignore someone's personal conversations. I believe if you ignore someone in personal conversations, they can't send you one.
What I would like to see is a couple options to expand the ignore posting part.
1) An option to forbid a user from posting in your topics.
2) An option to either completely hide a post from view (as in no "This user has posted. Do you want to see it anyway?"), or make it much more condensed. The purpose of ignoring a particular user is that you get annoyed by their posts. But that annoyance still remains even if you can't see what they posted but know they posted in line with the rest of the posts. I know there has been some comments about this like "What if someone else was replying to this person and it caused confusion". Well in this case how about something near the top of the topic out of the line of posts that says "X posts hidden". I can see it, skip past it, and half-way forget about it when I start reading. Essentially don't give me a reason to click on "read it anyway" because if it's in line with the posts, I'm more likely to do so, thus making the ignore feature useless.The whole point of this is -- please make this not inline. It defeats the purpose of ignoring posts.
I agree.
Aswell as an option to write an "about" snippet on each staff member.
I'm sure a lot of people want that since it's kinda general. This information could perhaps be fetched from the staffmember's "about" tab from the profile. Or a completely seperate thing.
Sometimes you have a user that likes to go back and comment on an old post.
Other users, not paying attention to the original date then comment.
In the ACP there would be a setting where you define the amount of time to pass before this shows up 30, 60, 90days etc.
Then in the thread, when a new post is made after the time designated in the ACP, a message will show between the last post and the most recent one "Necro Bump! There have been XX days between previous and next post."
